The M33 team had announced his return for the release of firmware 4.00. Far from imagine, as we all do, that this would be so little news.
Anyway, it would appear that the master has returned to work and that the Custom firmware 4.00 in M33 is made available soon.
In the news announced, in addition to the support of firmware 4.00, it would appear that a new Recovery is brand new to the program. Nothing more was filtered and perhaps even that novelty will be kept for a more "major" firmware of the PSP.
The new Custom Firmware 4.00 from Team M33 is on the road but is there any more than the previous release?
It is a good question and the future of Custom Firmware Dark_Alex could contain two new interesting features. In any case, if this point is for this version, these two innovations are being developed and should see the day, sooner or later.
A new recovery menu:
There will be a brand new recovery menu, much like the one in 3.95 GEN, which will hopefully enable you to change recovery setting whilst on the XMB menu.
A "savestate" is under development.
For those who do not know, this is a feature that will save the whole contents of the RAM in a file in order to resume a game or application in exactly the same state that it was when you turned the console off, much like the hibernate function in Windows.
The 1.50 kernel will probably be abandoned.
It is also possible that the 1.50 Kernel will be finally abandoned and that developers are forced to adapt ALL Homebrews to the kernel 3.x/4.x.
These two new features are currently under development and may make an appearance in an upcoming firmware by Dark_AleX, the 1.50 kernel however may also be removed.

the savestate thing sounds interesting, but I hope he does abandon the 1.50 kernel and make everyone adapt to the 3.xx/4.xx one, it's so annoying trying to find stuff for the slim only to discover it's 1.50 kernel based.
-
I was wondering why savestates didn't already exist, if we can dump the flash we could dump the ram.
-
awsome those features sound really kwl
-
that actually sounds good, maybe i will update to 4.00m33, because when i looked at sony's changelog and only saw two updates i was pretty pissed. but i hope he doesn't lose the 1.50 kernal, what would i do without DGEN (sega emulator) :cry2:
-
they will have to lose the 1.50 support at one point. it's a shame as most of the progammes out noe only run on the kernal, but it will happen. plus homebrew like dgen and other are now running on 3.xx. why use an outdated firmware kernal when we can start using the newer and better 3.xx and now 4.xx. sure it will take time for homebrewers to get used to this but in the end it will be worth while.
